Chapter 23:End of a Nightmare

Ultima's Point of View
Out of the corner of my eye,I saw Eighteen run a hand through her hair.Buu was on the other side of me,doing a strange dance.It was obvious that they knew what the outcome of this battle would be,just like Kid Buu and myself knew.

"I'll help you out.Not that you'll need it,but I need a good work out,"Eighteen said.

"Buu help too!"Buu exclaimed.

"Hm....I suppose it wouldn't hurt.Though I prefer to work alone...."I trailed off,turning to Kid Buu,"Ready for your defeat?Tell me something.Do you want it slow and painful?Or will you stand still and let me end it quickly?"

Kid Buu disappeared.He was trying to use his speed to surprise me from behind.I felt his fist connect with my spine,and I smirked.

"Slow and painful it is,then,"I said.

I spun around,driving my elbow into Kid Buu's side.He landed at the feet of the other Buu,and looked up with mock fear.Buu reached down to grab his evil counterpart,only to have his arm literally ripped off.Kid Buu used Buu's arm to attack the large pink creature.

"Good thing the kids aren't directly here....Their parents may have to explain a few things,"Eighteen stated.

"Buu,let me handle him.I'll let you have whatever's left,"I requested.

Buu frowned,but slowly floated over to us after landing a solid punch to Kid Buu.Noticing that this enemy was gone,Kid Buu flew towards me and started to blindly throw punches and kicks.I caught his fist and squeezed it,forcing the creature to his knees.Despite the pain,he threw another punch.I caught it as well and jumped over a sweeping kick.It was strange how he could rotate his body without moving his arms,but I didn't have time to think about it.After I had dodged the kick,I threw a kick of my own.

It connected with Kid Buu's chin and sent him into the air.I clenched my fists,creating a silver aura,and followed quickly.Upon catching up,I cupped my hands together and brought them down on his head.A second later,I came up under him and shoved my elbow into his stomach before my foot connected with his neck.Then Kid Buu fell to the ground,bouncing on contact.

Eighteen stood next to him,not even moving as he slowly reached toward her.Once Kid Buu grabbed her leg,Eighteen kicked him back up to me.I smirked and grabbed Kid Buu's antennae.

"You should to not touch a lady you just met,Kid Buu,"I leaned closer and whispered,"Besides,Eighteen is the type of lady that doesn't let ANYONE touch her."

Kid Buu's antennae wrapped around my wrist,constricting my blood flow.I shook my head at his useless resistance.

"Fool.I could have ended it quickly and you wouldn't have felt any pain.But now,you insist on drawing out your end so that you feel more pain,it seems,"I said.

I pointed my finger at Kid Buu's antennae and used my energy to cut it from my wrist.Kid Buu kicked at me,and managed to connect.But I felt nothing,only a slight discomfort.I motioned to the other Buu and he grinned,hopping over and grabbing Kid Buu by the back of neck.

"Take him into the sky,as high as you can go without loosing the effect of gravity,and let him go.I'll take it from there,"I ordered.

Buu nodded and took off.Eighteen turned her cold gaze to me.

"What are you planning to do?"she questioned.

I smirked,"Give Kid Buu a flashy death."

I focused my power,causing my hair to spike up and turn a metallic silver.Looking at the single spike over my left eye,it seemed like it was made of pure silver.My hair may be naturally silver,but my transformation changed it by a small amount.

"Let me guess.Some form of 'Super Fusion'?"Eighteen asked.

"Exactly.Most fusions can gain the Super transformations of those that form it,but I've reached a level farther than the others,"I explained.

"BUU READY!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I looked into the air and saw Buu floating thousands of miles up,Kid Buu struggling in his arms.It looked strange,to say the least,but I didn't have time to laugh.Eighteen walked away,obviously knowing what I was going to do.

"BUU!WHEN I SAY 'NOW',YOU HIT KID BUU TOWARD ME!!!!"I called out.

I brought my hands in front of me and closed my eyes,"I need to borrow the powers of those that became me.Those that are noble warriors with pure hearts.With their powers,I shall create the mighty Ultimate Finishing Nova."

I could feel all of my powers focusing.Several voices called out the names of their attacks in my mind,each one with more power than the last.

My eyes snapped open,"NOW BUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Buu slammed Kid Buu towards me.Several figures appeared to either side of me,each one holding his hands in the final phase of his strongest attack.Each blast emerged,colliding only inches away from me.I could feel the heat from the energy as I released my own blast.After all of them had combined into one,an enormous blast shot at the falling Kid Buu.He barely had time to scream before he was being ripped apart by the immense energy.

"Yes!It's finally over!"Kibitoshin exclaimed.

We had returned with the good news of Kid Buu's defeat,and Kibitoshin had immediately began jumping with joy.

"Zapland's plan worked....I wonder if he had planned it this whole time,before becoming a Majin?"Eighteen thought out loud.

"No.He had planned it once he realized that Buu had been released,"I replied.

"I see.So it wasn't really a plan to get revenge for Evil Buu killing him,but more of a plan for....apologizing,"Kibitoshin said.

I nodded,"Do not tell them I said that.Zapland would become enraged if he knew."

Everyone around me nodded.I heard a slap and turned to see Elder Kai holding the side of his face and Eighteen glaring at him.

"No.One.Touches.Me!!"the Android shouted angrily.

Ignoring what was going on,Kibitoshin turned to me,"What are you going to do now that we no longer need your assistance?"

"I will continue to gather power in the gap between dimensions,you know it as 'Limbo'.There,I will become stronger for the next time I am needed,"I replied.

"We thank you for your assistance.Again,I can't properly express my gratitude in words,"he said.

I started to feel my body separate,"There is no need.Farewell,until I see you again."

-----

I looked around at the nothingness around me,'So,this Limbo.I imagined something horrible.But this is....peaceful.An ideal place to meditate.I hope those others can find away to bring their friends back.'

I sat down and closed my eyes,'I'm surprised a creature such as Kid Buu is capable of the destruction he caused.But I fear he shall not be the last enemy....Something far worse is on its way....But,they will all be passed once it arrives....I shouldn't worry about such things until I am called upon.Meditation requires a clear mind.'

I took a deep breath and allowed energy to flow freely.For the time between then and the next time I was needed,I never removed my senses from those that had called upon my power to defeat Kid Buu and all of their friends.
